Review for Center for Urban Community Services | CUCS, New York, NY, USA
As a person who was in a very unhealthy household i decided to leave with my four children who at the time depending on my ex husband for everything. I had just had my youngest daughter Madyson. But i knew if i didn't do something now about this situation it was never going to change and as for my girls i didn't want them to think the way we was living is ok and for my son i didn't want him to repeat his fathers actions. So through many tears we decided that it would be best for us to leave but found out no one would take us in. saldy things happen but we went into a homeless shelter and that is when i got myself back my life not saying it was easy but places that give single moms a chance i was very thankful for the help. I left mostly everything i didn't have nothing only a few bags with me but for these places to help out families who have no one to go to its a blessing and they help get your life back together !
i wouldn't change anything that i went through because it made me stronger today thanks to places like this that gives us a new start i am remarried now and my children are doing very well my oldest is serving in the Navy. Even though what we went through was rough but they offer help to make the ease a little bit easier.
